I only read McCrumb's _If I'd killed him when I met him_,
hardly enough
to have an informed opinion on her work. This Gold Medal novel
is
well-written, but the themes (the book is largely about
"issues") didn't
apeal to me; I was also annoyed by a certain wordiness and
dialogue that
could have been sharper. I did enjoy the humor, though. I can
tell that
Sharyn has been around the block quite a few times.
As I look at this modern cozy, I notice that it does not have
a Gold
Medal number - when did they stop numbering the
volumes?
